Self-Injury Awareness Seminar:


Having a presentation at your school auditorium or mult-purpose room is an effective way to inform and educate up to hundreds of people at the same time.

  • "Self-Injury Awareness" is a one time seminar, which provides basic understanding on self-inflicted violence.
  • This is a combination of a lecture format, interactive powerpoint presentation, video clips, followed by a question and answer session.
  • This is an excellent way to educate school staff, counselors, or just have general information on the topic.
  • Our founder, Vicki Duffy will come to your location and have plenty of give-away items. 
Vicki, founder of Launching Point and author of "No More Pain! Breaking the Silence of Self-Injury, is inspiring, motivating, and a very passionate speaker that is available for your corporate, school or church event. Some of Vicki's most taught and requested topics:
  • Suicide and its impact on loved ones
  • The "F" Word...reasons to say it, use it, and act on it!
  • The Basics of Self-Injury
  • Having Sex with yourself...the masturbation conversation
  • Women & Sexual Addiction
  • Sexual Identity Crisis
  • What is Rape?
  • Hatred and self-hate
  • Same sex relationships and same sex attraction
Vick is a carefree speacker, but also uses a presentation slide format and always has plenty of handouts.

Please send an e-mail to us and we will contact you shortly in regards to your inquiry. Thank you for inquiring!

Although there is never a cost for our meetings or support groups, there is a fee for seminars/presentations. Please know that  the fee goes directly to Launching Point, not the speaker.

An interactive presentation is utlilized, along with a 5 minute video clip on self-injury (for educational purposes), and we offer plenty of resource materials and hand-outs available.

If you are interested in a Self-Injury Awareness Seminar, contact us with your request, and we will provide you the fee amount, e-mail (or mail) you an outline, and answer any questions you may have.

We can also provide the seminar at our location, where we can accomodate up to 50 people. Refreshments served at our location.
